About Zinc options
Zinc is a base-metal MCX contract used heavily in galvanising and construction. Its options track industrial demand, inventories and global metal prices. Zinc options on MCX expire monthly and trade into the late evening session, so time decay and implied volatility behave differently from equity options — read the chain with that in mind.
